4.2 FE Middle School Observation 3-4

In Intro to Education we are observing the Music class in the Middle School and they are 5th and 6th graders. We have observed on April 9th and April 16th. The teacher is Ms Cooper and she is a great teacher.

On April 9th the students were still learning Firework by Katy Perry. They are sounding really good for 5th and 6th graders. They also played a game where they were in groups and competing against each other.

On April 16th I taught the last half of class and made a quiz for them. It was about Lines and Spaces, they really had to think about it. They were split into two teams and I would then call out the question and then the students would raise there hands and who raised there had first got to answer the question. If they got it wrong the other team could steal. 

I have had a great time observing the students. It has been a fun opportunity. The kids thought I was a fun observer. When the teacher left for a second some students were talking and a student said she is a student teacher and then they were quiet. So I have had so much fun doing this.

 In Intro to Education we are observing the Music class in the Middle School and they are 5th and 6th graders. We have observed on March 26th and April 2nd. The teacher is Ms Cooper and she is a great teacher. 

During my first observation the students started to learn Firework by Katy Perry. They also were learning about Beethoven and what he did. The students were a little loud, they also were learning about lines and spaces.

During my second observation the students were loud and were still working on Firework and it was sounding pretty good. This week they were learning about Brahms and what he has composed. They were also reviewing lines and spaces. 

I loved the teacher she was so nice. The students were nice to besides they were kind of loud. They have learned 5 pages of their music and it sounded good. They also played a game where they thought of words from the letters of the piano A-G. They got into teams to see which team had the most words and then they got a prize. It was so fun observing that class.
